Saatchi Gallery

I dislike writing these things,
a combination of sounding too pretentious
or to bland and boring...
finding a good level is impossible.

Steven Heaton - Saatchi Gallery online

Saatchi Gallery online profile;

Dystopian landscapes, buildings collapse, go back to earth and chemical factories are the new autumnal beauty.

If we look at the world without blinkered eyes it is both strange and surprising what can seem beautiful.

My work is largely landscape based incorporating all elements therein, a rusted sheet of factory metal can become an autumn backdrop for a chemical skyline.
Telegraph wires travel through the sky holding the world together.

The world is corroding,
I think that is beautiful.
